Emails show Trump admin had 'no way to link' separated kids to parents

Nah. Fomented by cons to keep the issue alive for the next election.

You run with that.

PurpnGold · 2019-05-02T13:06:21.878Z

Thanks.

So this sounds like the system works.

Not sure how we would go about stopping “fake” asylum claims? How do we prevent anyone from reaching the border and claiming asylum?

Funny thing is now American tax payers need to pay for the housing, education, etc of all those children till they are 18.

Stop illegal immigration and fake asylum claims. They are the root cause of these situations.

And until the root cause is fixed, please continue separating - permanently and irreversibly (due to monumental incompentence) - children from the parents. Because as we all know, it’s all about the children - until they can be used as a weapon.

Thanks, We will.

only a Judge can determine if a claim is false or not.

Then congress needs to expedite this procedure so it doesnt take a year or more as it does today. Provide the money for more judges so it takes 90 days or less or remove them to the country they entered from (Mexico) until the hearing is held.
Complaining about it but doing nothing is not the answer.

These are the results of an immigration policy not based on actually fixing anything, they have this belief that if they make it harder for people they wont come.

To the point of separating thousands of kids from their parents with no way of reuniting. Ok, so now the US govt has custody of thousands of immigrant children…now what?

They are so focused on building a wall, as if this is the solution to ending the flow when it is clear a wall in itself will do little to nothing. The wall is not going to stop people coming to the border and asking for asylum…

They cant see past short term “solutions”…

It shows an underlying factor of how people considered being good leaders lose their way under trump, and become so lost in his mire, that the either get out while they can or are fired for not doing his bidding. In a way, in my opinion, its the same thing that happened here with the huge disconnect between conservatives and people like myself…who has been berated for not falling in line. Because I have a stricter moral compass regarding Trump. I chose not to go down that path. Others have. Comey’s op-ed explains so much.

They are not pro-lifers. They have proved that that is a lie.

Today I learned standing on principle makes one a SJW.

Konssurvative1 · 2019-05-02T16:22:50.730Z

Yeah…me too. So be it.

Roxiebelle:

NO it’s more like Congress and liberals who are the idiots! Until Congress passes laws to get rid of the asinine asylum laws that allow for the exploitation of children who will continue to be trafficked, used, abused and recycled the blame is on Congress.

So you want to eliminate asylum for people trying to escape horrible conditions…karma is a real thing.

How many fake asylum claims are there?

Most asylum claims are fake. Read the statue describing asylum. It is not the same thing as poverty or even living in a high crime area.

“Most asylum claims are fake”…based on what, exactly?

Where is the data?

65% asylum claims failed to meet required standards in 2018. A higher rejection rate for Mexico and Central American countries.

Asylum Decisions and Denials Jump in 2018

“failed to reach” = “fake”?

Comey.

Fascinating.

Build the wall…

Has the check come from Mexico yet?

Funny how Comey went from the cause of Hillary’s failure to Captain America after he started saying the right things. I’m pretty sure ol’ Gumby can be anything the left wants him to be.

Not relevant to my commentary on your SJW quip.

Konssurvative1 · 2019-05-02T16:49:42.096Z

Since I am the one who brought this here…It has nothing to do with Comey being the reason she lost. Good. She lost. I didn’t want her to win. However, I also didn’t want Trump to win. So Comey has gone from nothing to nothing in my book. Comey is who he always was in my book. I had no horse in the race. I voted Libertarian.
